Some of the most notable new features:

See the visualization of these features here: LINK

- Advanced Visibility - this is a new feature that allows user to toggle geometry or curve highlight of the selected curves. This highlight can be customized by changing color and size of the components (CVs, curve, hull) as well as some additional customization options.

- Fully Reworked Color Mode - colorize mode from the previous versions was reworked to now support alpha map transparency and it will also work with most of the functions of GS CurveTools. User can work in this mode from start to finish and then just switch back to the original texture, or turn it on and off when needed during the modeling process.

- New Layer Collections System - organize complex projects into separate named collections, use some useful functions like auto-hide curves on inactive collections, template collection ignore and import curves into a new collection.

- Dynamic Subdivisions (Dynamic Length Divisions) - changes the divisions of the geometry based on the length of the curve and divisions density slider. Fully procedural. Set and forget.

- New Card to Curve algorithm - convert any one sided card to procedural card with curve control and all the features of GS CurveTools. It will (attempt) to transfer attributes such as orientation, twist, profile and even UVs to a new procedural card. Any number of selected geometry cards can be converted in one go.

- Copy, Paste and Filter attributes - a new feature of transfer attributes and UVs buttons. Copy and Paste are pretty self explanatory. Filter will allow you to choose which attributes are transferred using Transfer and Copy-Paste functions.

- Maya 2024 support!

... and even more features and improvements!
